# `otopcua-abcip-cli` — AB CIP test client

Ad-hoc probe / read / write / subscribe tool for ControlLogix / CompactLogix /
Micro800 / GuardLogix PLCs, talking to the **same** `AbCipDriver` the OtOpcUa
server uses (libplctag under the hood).

Second of four driver test-client CLIs (Modbus → AB CIP → AB Legacy → S7 →
TwinCAT). Shares `Driver.Cli.Common` with the others.

## Build + run

```powershell
dotnet run --project src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.AbCip.Cli -- --help
```

## Common flags

| Flag | Default | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| `-g` / `--gateway` | **required** | Canonical `ab://host[:port]/cip-path` |
| `-f` / `--family` | `ControlLogix` | ControlLogix / CompactLogix / Micro800 / GuardLogix |
| `--timeout-ms` | `5000` | Per-operation timeout |
| `--verbose` | off | Serilog debug output |

Family ↔ CIP-path cheat sheet:
- **ControlLogix / CompactLogix / GuardLogix** — `1,0` (slot 0 of chassis)
- **Micro800** — empty path, just `ab://host/`
- **Sub-slot Logix** (rare) — `1,3` for slot 3

## Commands

### `probe` — is the PLC up?

```powershell
# ControlLogix — read the canonical libplctag system tag
otopcua-abcip-cli probe -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0 -t @raw_cpu_type --type DInt

# Micro800 — point at a user-supplied global
otopcua-abcip-cli probe -g ab://10.0.0.6/ -f Micro800 -t _SYSVA_CLOCK_HOUR --type DInt
```

### `read` — single Logix tag

```powershell
# Controller scope
otopcua-abcip-cli read -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0 -t Motor01_Speed --type Real

# Program scope
otopcua-abcip-cli read -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0 -t "Program:Main.Counter" --type DInt

# Array element
otopcua-abcip-cli read -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0 -t "Recipe[3]" --type Real

# UDT member (dotted path)
otopcua-abcip-cli read -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0 -t "Motor01.Speed" --type Real
```

### `write` — single Logix tag

Same shape as `read` plus `-v`. Values parse per `--type` using invariant
culture. Booleans accept `true`/`false`/`1`/`0`/`yes`/`no`/`on`/`off`.
Structure (UDT) writes need the member layout declared in a real driver config
and are refused by the CLI.

```powershell
otopcua-abcip-cli write -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0 -t Motor01_Speed --type Real -v 3.14
otopcua-abcip-cli write -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0 -t StartCommand --type Bool -v true
```

### `subscribe` — watch a tag until Ctrl+C

```powershell
otopcua-abcip-cli subscribe -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0 -t Motor01_Speed --type Real -i 500
```

## Typical workflows

- **"Is the PLC reachable?"** → `probe`.
- **"Did my recipe write land?"** → `write` + `read` back.
- **"Why is tag X flipping?"** → `subscribe`.
- **"Is this GuardLogix safety tag writable from non-safety?"** → `write` and
  read the status code — safety tags surface `BadNotWritable` / CIP errors,
  non-safety tags surface `Good`.
